Market share of leading banks in the U.S. 2024, by domestic deposits

As of March 31, 2024, JPMorgan Chase led the U.S. banking sector with approximately 11.7 percent of total domestic deposits, closely followed by Bank of America at nearly 11 percent. This distribution reflects the concentrated nature of the U.S. banking industry, where, despite thousands of commercial banks operating nationwide, the market is dominated by the top four institutions. The total value of deposits held at FDIC-insured commercial banks has decreased in recent years, amounting to 17.83 trillion U.S. dollars in 2023. 

The U.S. banking industry

The banking industry in the United States accounts for tens of trillions of U.S. dollars in assets under management. While there are thousands of commercial banks in the country, the market is dominated by the largest four of these. This is particularly true when considering functions such as private and investment banking.

Other measures

This ranking presents the market share of domestic assets, but other measures give a slightly different picture. For example, looking at the value of total assets shows a higher market share in the hands of the top four firms. Apart from that, the revenue of leading commercial banks can also give a better idea of banks’ financial standing.
